Billy jumped with one foot and then used Flash with the other to escape the ring of fire and attack the enemy at the same time. The summoner got surprised when Billy suddenly appeared in front of him, and despite that and the fact Billy used his spear to pierce the enemy's head, nothing happened. Only a Mana Shield appeared and blocked the strike. Billy knew that it wouldn't be easy, but he didn't expect that it would be like that. Also, a new spell just appeared, he had to study and learn it later. He was…

In any case, Billy also realized that the barbarians could spend less mana using Fierce for whatever reason… it wasn't a skill, it was more like a trait of his people. Regardless, once the preparations had been finished, Svan and Beatrice told their men what they were supposed to do. Usually, leaving them without their commanders would be a really stupid idea, but they would feel like they were underestimating them if they have to let Billy go alone. It would be pretty shameful as well. Regardless, their…

On the very next day, the group found another obstacle on their path. It was a relatively small town. If their goal was to invade and conquer, taking that place would be easy, but that wasn't their goal. In any case, dealing with a small town would be a bit more troublesome, even though Billy had two ways to deal with the situation. The second seemed better, but he decided to hold that idea for an emergency and he used the difficult one instead. Billy's idea was… To make rain like hell in the area.…

Once he gave them the details of the plan, Billy saw them frowning. They knew that he could pull that off, but it seemed a bit weird for a plan. Still, they didn't have much of an option if they wanted to cross the state without having to fight so much. "Well, if you can do that so many times in a row, that will save us a lot of time," Beatrice said. "We will be counting on you then." After that was decided, they went to sleep, but half of the people there stayed awake to avoid ambushes. Until now,…

"That was some insane speed you had there… I barely could follow with my eyes," Svan said. "Well, it was a combination of two powerful techniques I came up with recently," Billy said. "Unfortunately, one of them requires an insane control over mana, the other is something that you can learn, if you try to improve your Fierce Aura." "Fierce Aura? You mean our battle aura?" Svan asked. "I wonder if that can be improved… I guess we never thought of that since we didn't feel the need." "Thinking…

Felipe had a point. That move might decide the end of the battle, and leaving the success solely in their hands was too risky. Beatrice seemed to be around Billy's age, and while Tersaris state was peaceful, she must have some experience leading people. His terms were reasonable, but Billy could tell that most of the barbarians won't agree to be given orders by someone who isn't.one of them. Thus, they will have to decrease their forces. Still, it wasn't like they had any other option. For things to…

In the end, Billy had to use half of his mana to create that massive death trap. He thought that he would use all of it, but since his Earth magic was so powerful now, that was the result and he liked it, more or less. When morning came, Billy was pretty tired. Not physically, but mentally since that kind of work was different than usual. Fortunately, it didn't take long for the fruits of his labor to appear. You obtained 200 experience points. The skill Earth Manipulation obtained 100 experience…

"You look a bit different from before," Beatrice said. "Harsher, I guess. Less friendly." "It is just your impression," Billy said. "I guess you are right…" Beatrice said. Beatrice realized that Billy didn't want to talk and left the area. Billy always tried to be quite diplomatic when he met new people, but it was time to change his approach a bit. He helped Icarus even though he went to face the summoner instead of helping him face the dragons one year ago, and now Beatrice's family lied to…

The last part of Toles state was quite mountainous, so Billy wasted some time crossing those parts. While he only crossed the Northeastern part of the barbarians' state, Billy still managed to see a lot of them moving toward the North. They knew that they would be the next targets if the Tersaris state falls, so they couldn't refuse the plea for help from Galatea followers, even despite their numerous differences. "It seems that even more people than before are coming to help, maybe Svan won't be the…

After he explained things to everyone, Billy went to check the possible messages that Icarus had left behind. In the end, he sent some. He had confirmed that those states were under attack and that a bigger swarm of monsters was heading to the temple city. This time, the neighboring state where they hired the mercenaries was busy while being attacked as well, so they won't be able to be hired. Their sole option was to rely on the barbarians again… "That being said, I am sure that Felipe imagined that…
